I like that you don&#39;t need to use the dreaded &quot;stop light&quot; that the teacher uses in our pre-K class. I hate, hate, hate that thing!!! I&#39;ve never seen a more detrimental and misused behavior control system in my life. Your techniques sound fun and they teach self-discipline, responsibility, thoughtfulness, and consideration. Four wonderful life skills. I can&#39;t wait to use them in my class when I get one.Deborah Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16668623440399803573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018064395641991658.post-192186411328310452017-01-03T07:04:06.353-05:002017-01-03T07:04:06.353-05:00Our school wide discipline policy eventually gets ...Our school wide discipline policy eventually gets students to a 5th step which is an office referral. If a student is continually disrupting, they would eventually find themselves there. Each time I need to remove them from class, I give them a &quot;step&quot; on the discipline board. The steps are: 1. Warning 2. Parent contact 3. Detention 4. Team conference with kid &amp;<br />Parents (and usually an admin) 5. Office referral. If the student doesn&#39;t do their hw, then I put it in as a missing assignment (which calculates in their grade as a zero) or they get detention (eventually).Jill Oberkoflerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01051258240804690326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018064395641991658.post-75450734068942056452017-01-02T21:30:20.605-05:002017-01-02T21:30:20.605-05:00What if the student(s) is/are okay with continuing...What if the student(s) is/are okay with continuing to talk and they see no wrong in the homework and continue to distract others? Is that when you&#39;d send them out? Or because you have the Detention Law, that serves as the result of their unwise choice?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01498437674167869942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018064395641991658.post-54485728288825808902016-07-28T15:19:18.097-04:002016-07-28T15:19:18.097-04:00Love Love your ideas,
